As the team choice was announced, Rebeca appeared to respond to the news - and she did not take it very well.

Posting on Twitter, Rebeca simply captioned a tweet with two 'confused' emojis.

Last year, she hit out at rumours linking husband Fabinho with a move to Paris Saint-Germain.

Ahead of Liverpool ’s Champions League clash with the French side, reports in L’Equipe suggested the French giants would use the occasion to talk to the Reds about signing the Brazilian on loan in January.

However, an unimpressed Tavares took to Twitter to have her say on the rumours, branding them ‘Fake News’.
